worth any amount OF trouble IN get

they are worth taking any amount OF
trouble to lessen the trouble; and
since it could all be removed 10y so
simple thing as a few rails and a
locomotive, it is certainly pity that

turies to build up this thing"
"I can tell YOU who he is said the
knowing Joseph, with a laugh. "He's
the man that tells YOU the boiling riv-
er nuts $4,000 barrels of hot water
into the Gardner every twenty-four
hours. I've often told him he'd ought.

to measure it."
"'Anv estimate of the age of the
